  2. Sequence alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sequence_alignment

    Global alignments, which attempt to align every residue in every sequence, are most useful when the sequences in the query set are similar and of roughly equal size. (This does not mean global alignments cannot start and/or end in gaps.) A general global alignment technique is the Needleman–Wunsch algorithm, which is based on dynamic ...

  3. Dot plot (bioinformatics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot_plot_(bioinformatics)

    The main diagonal represents the sequence's alignment with itself; lines off the main diagonal represent similar or repetitive patterns within the sequence. In bioinformatics a dot plot is a graphical method for comparing two biological sequences and identifying regions of close similarity after sequence alignment. It is a type of recurrence plot.

  4. International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Nucleotide...

    The International Nucleotide Sequence Database Collaboration (INSDC) consists of a joint effort to collect and disseminate databases containing DNA and RNA sequences. [1] It involves the following computerized databases: NIG's DNA Data Bank of Japan (), NCBI's GenBank and the EMBL-EBI's European Nucleotide Archive ().

  5. SAM (file format) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAM_(file_format)

    Sequence Alignment Map (SAM) is a text-based format originally for storing biological sequences aligned to a reference sequence developed by Heng Li and Bob Handsaker et al. [1] It was developed when the 1000 Genomes Project wanted to move away from the MAQ mapper format and decided to design a new format.

    The NCBI assigns a unique identifier (taxonomy ID number) to each species of organism. [5] The NCBI has software tools that are available through internet browsers or by FTP. For example, BLAST is a sequence similarity searching program. BLAST can do sequence comparisons against the GenBank DNA database in less than 15 seconds.

  7. Binary Alignment Map - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binary_Alignment_Map

    Binary Alignment Map (BAM) is the comprehensive raw data of genome sequencing; [1] it consists of the lossless, compressed binary representation of the Sequence Alignment Map-files. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] BAM is the compressed binary representation of SAM (Sequence Alignment Map), a compact and index-able representation of nucleotide sequence alignments ...

  8. HMMER - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMMER

    A profile HMM modelling a multiple sequence alignment. HMMER is a free and commonly used software package for sequence analysis written by Sean Eddy. [2] Its general usage is to identify homologous protein or nucleotide sequences, and to perform sequence alignments.

  9. List of alignment visualization software - Wikipedia

    This page is a subsection of the list of sequence alignment software. Multiple alignment visualization tools typically serve four purposes: Aid general understanding of large-scale DNA or protein alignments; Visualize alignments for figures and publication; Manually edit and curate automatically generated alignments; Analysis in depth
